Vista - spelling check

Windows Mail seems to only allow for English (US) as the spell check
dictionary. There is only one "english" language option and the spelling
checks are American not British.
Is there a way to change the spelling dictionary? Preferably to Engliah
(Australia) .

But you can "train" it by adding words.
I mainly get caught typing "our" for "or" in words like
labour or neighbour. The fault gradually goes away.

I thought the reason we pay M$ such inflated prices when compared with the
American market was because they had to correct their spellings to suit our
needs!! As they obviously can't be bothered to make Mail spell words
correctly, we're better off junking it and finding an alternative! Or is it
another pathetic attempt to force us to buy Outlook like the way Mail and
Calendar won't link to a Pocket PC?

spelling.)
